"I'm not allowed to. Your stupid coach told me." Will had informed him that his bullying behaviour made it hard to convince the others he was worth having there and honestly, Sebastian didn't even know if he felt like it. He didn't like this world, it wasn't what he was used to. "I don't get it. I don't get you."
Kurt was nothing, he was a slip of a boy who should be shaking with fear and hiding and yet there he was, standing between him and guys three times both their size. And now he was here, joking about his bruises and Sebastian hated him. He hated Kurt. And he liked him and he hated that too. He took a deep breath, struggling a bit with his breath control. "It gets to me because I'm fucking normal. I don't know what's wrong with you."
"It does get to me. I mean, you know that I ran off to Dalton Academy last year. When it got too much." Which had been a great idea as it had led to him meeting Blaine. He wasn't sure whether he should have run though. It was a kind of cowardice, but it had also been what felt smartest at the time. Safest. "I'm just used to it. With me, everyone always knew. Even before I came out. My dad knew and he has gotten better about it now, but at first he didn't want to acknowledge it. And he wanted me to hide because he was worried. I once threw the high note in Defying Gravity because of that."
That moment of his life still haunted him. "I'm not like you. Or Blaine. Before Dalton, I never went to a school where I didn't get bullied. And I never passed for straight. I'm never going to. So I had to get used to it. Didn't have a choice. It doesn't mean I'm okay with it. All I can do is walk with my head held high and hope that it makes a difference. That it does actually get better."
Sebastian sighed and considered the situation before nodding his head slowly. Sure, he guessed it was different for someone with gay-face to go under the radar. Sebastian hadn't really gone under the radar, he never would but he had a choice. No one assumed it of him. Hence why he could go to young republicans and get away with it. "I was a bullied. In elementary school. Then I hit a kid with a rock and he bled a lot. He cried so loud. I didn't mean it but people got scared of me and it stopped. And I got into no trouble, my parents were cool like that."
Sebastian shrugged his shoulder and looked after where those jerks had gone. "I'm not sure a rock would do the trick this time. They'd probably pick up a boulder and smush me under it."
With a weary sigh, Sebastian looked at his watch. The screen was busted up, it was super annoying. "I'm not really after Blaine. I just don't like you." Sebastian confessed as he smiled at Kurt, not sure what sort of smile he was even doing here, just felt right. "So I want to break your toys, like elementary school."
"You also think that Blaine is pretty. Which he is. He's hot. He's hot and he can pass as straight which I cannot and that's why there will always be people that think I don't deserve him." Kurt understood it by now, he supposed he'd always known. It didn't keep him from loving Blaine. "Blaine is sweet. So sweet. And I won't let you play with him and hurt him again. Because maybe I look fae, but I can take care of my man."
He certainly wasn't about to back off. "Try out for Glee club tomorrow. I will convince the others."
"You were about to fight those guys, I get the vibe you're gonna." Sebastian admitted as he looked at Kurt and then looked away. "If I can be in Glee club, I won't chase your boy. It's a promise. And you have no reason to believe that but I do actually keep those." Sebastian held out his hand to Kurt, wondering if the other would actually shake it or not.
"Truce. For now, I'm not going soft, I just don't want to die here and have nothing to show for it." He wanted to at least win a trophy they can gay-bash him to death with.
Kurt took Sebastian's hand and then got up, so he could help him to his feet. He knew just how winded one was after a gut punch like that, especially when not being prepared for it. "We look after each other in the Glee club. It's cheesy and ridiculous, but Mr Schue said once how we are all minorities if we are in there. Guess he's right. Even a guy like my brother gets bullied over it."
Just a lot harder to beat that mountain of a man up. "You'll have to be careful, Sebastian. If you join up with us, you might find one day that you're not the lonely bitter bitch you want to be. Maybe I'll actually like you."
"Ugh. Do you have to make me hate something I like. I just want to perform, I'm not here for the bonding. I can do technicals, I'm a dime a dozen tenor and I can destroy any opponent. Except the scary lesbian." He was just saying, he knew when he was beat but he knew how to win a contest. Maybe not with cheating and scheming this time but he could do a double back flip and he was close to nailing a triple.
"I'll audition. Brace yourself, princess. I might even turn you on."
"I don't see much risk of that before you start on your redemption arcs. See, I like sweet boys. Or, really, just the one boy." He turned away from Sebastian and headed down the hallway, before Finn could get tired of him looking for his pompoms. He could, however, not resist singing a few bars as he walked. "Anything you can do, I can do better..."
